Friday's lesson

Last lesson was our final week on work shopping techniques for storytelling. We brand all of the elements of the past few weeks  together. We started to make up a story with that class and everybody in the class would then follow on and tell a bit more of the story. We had to make sure that our story would appeal to different audiences. We had to focus on various age groups. Some exams were primary school children, teenage girls, teenage boys and men down the pub. This meant that our tone of voice would have to change and the content would have to change so the language would be relevant to the age or gender of the group to make it more suitable and interesting for the group.

After this we had to work more on movement. The class was split into two groups where one had to make a magical forest and the other had to make a magical undersea world. I had to make the undersea world. Our group started with a soundscape and which led to a short dance. We decided to go over the top with the facial expressions to make sure that we got our primary school target audience and make sure that they stay interested.

I liked what we did today as it gave us a whole overview of what we did during these workshops. This now means that we now how a better understanding on how to address our target audience and keep them interested.
